[sent to me rather than the list] From: DANIEL.DAVIES at flemings.com Date: Wed, 27 Oct 1999 20:35:43 +0100 Hmmm well, the distinction between "up" and "down" is taught to us in primary school, and up quarks don't point in the opposite direction to down quarks, so I guess Murray Gell-Mann's a worthless faker too. And superstrings aren't strings, so that's bad news for Hawking. And indeed, imaginary numbers aren't imaginary, which is bad news for someone else. I've never und ...

Peter Kilander wrote: >I like this line: "Large companies tend >to be less ideological than small business owners..." If "ideological" is the way Times reporters say "rabidly right-wing," it's probably right. Wall Street is full of Democrats, and the Fortune 500 can live happily with the business wings of both parties.
